Fifty Years of Gay Rights
We were pretty early, and it was not all plain sailing after July 1967. More gay men were entrapped by the police after homosexuality became lawful than beforehand.
In July 1967 I was almost 15.
The mainstream press was vile, speaking about perverts, sick people, the lot, but sexual actis in private, between consenting adult males (over 21) became lafwul. A major problem is that it was unlawful to ask another man for sex!
